Interior photograph of a painted column in the ballroom of the Mosque of the El Jebel Shrine located in Denver, Colorado. The Mosque of the El Jebel Shrine utilizes Middle Eastern architectural styles to create ceremonial spaces in keeping with the spirit and rituals of the Ancient Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. The exterior is one of the best examples of Moorish inspired architecture in Colorado, but the greater significance of the building may be found in its interior which is an incredible collection of architectural styles, ranging from Moorish and Egyptian to French Provincial, Elizabethan, and Arts & Crafts. No other interior space in the state surpasses the mosque for its high level of artistic detail and craftsmanship. The architects, the Baerresen Brothers, reached the pinnacle of their prolific practice with the design of the 1907 mosque.
